American Indians

Yep. You might find this article interesting:

"Willerslev added the Spirit Cave data to 14 other new whole genomes from sites scattered from Alaska to Chile and ranging from 10,700 to 500 years old. His data join an even bigger trove published in Cell by a team led by population geneticist David Reich of Harvard Medical School in Boston. They analyzed DNA from 49 new samples from Central and South America dating from 10,900 to 700 years old, at more than 1.2 million positions across the genome. All told, the data decisively dispel suggestions, based on the distinctive skull shape of a few ancient remains, that early populations had a different ancestry from today's Native Americans. "Native Americans truly did originate in the Americas, as a genetically and culturally distinctive group. They are absolutely indigenous to this continent," Raff says."

You've tried that canard previously maggot. Check a thesaurus on your way out.

Isn't ' Havana gila ' a Jewish dance ? Or some sort of Florida lizard ? Both suit you.

They are not Indians. So I cannot understand why anyone would call them that.

Because you don't speak Spanish or bother to look up the writings between Columbus and the King of Spain.

Columbus noted that the indigenous people he found in America had no thieves or liars among them, they were honest, and gave freely. He referred to them as if they were 'children of God', or 'Los Ninos de la Endeo', later corrupted to indian by the sailors. The nation of India wasn't called that until some 300 years later. The commonly told story that Columbus thought he landed in India is bogus.

Anyone born in America is a native American. The politically correct BS is...well...BS.

Asia, by most accounts- but the First Nations are exactly that- ' here first '- ergo ' indigenous '.

There are several indicators that the indians originally came from Asia (Polynesia?). One of the strongest is the similar religion of Shinto (as it's called in Japan, the indians have various names for it that they use) that they both share. Whether by boat or whether they walked in across some land bridge is unknown. Most indications is that they arrived by sea. There are also indications that other people have come and gone (destroyed?) in America.

Much is simply unknown. Many indians have died as a result of exposure to European diseases, others due to wars between each other, and wars against those newly arrived from Europe. The tale if the indian in America is a sad one.

Whether they were here first is unknown. They were certainly here before the Europeans arrived.

That is an altered quote. I did not write that. Who uses the term "paleface"? Moon is the only one I know of.

You two sort it out between you. Watch out for his sock, mind.,

Now the fool is assigning Controlled Opposition's posts to himself.
Maybe he's got more than one sock and he's lost control.

Head up ass fallacy.
